  • Connector June 2018
    NEWS ‘N VIEWS FROM THE GROUP | JUNE 2018 CHAIRMAN’S UPDATE Welcome back to all our members and their families who attended our fantastic Plumbing World Funtimes in Fiji convention in May, and I trust that everyone is now adjusting to the challenges of the early onset of our New Zealand winter. Conditions across the country are already treacherous, so I ask everyone in our NZPM, Metrix and Plumbing World businesses, and all of our co-operative members to please take extra care—especially on the roads—this winter. It was great to see over 230 people enjoying the events and camaraderie that our incredible Fiji shareholder trip offered, including around 100 members celebrating their first of what I’m sure will be many Plumbing World overseas conventions. With the next convention announced as Beijing in 2020, I expect that we’ll again see a big turnout, as shareholders continue to experience those unique and special benefits that membership of our co-operative offers. During the convention we delivered a business session where I outlined details of the NZPM Group’s strategic and co-operative focus, together with updates around our financial performance, the forecast rebate dividend and our Future Governance programme. Following this Rob Kidd talked about three key aspects of running your business in this modern era, which is becoming increasingly digitally and technologically challenging for us all. For those who didn’t make it to Fiji, all of this information together with an opportunity for you to ask questions or offer feedback about your co-operative will be provided during our forthcoming annual roadshows.

  • Auckland Regional Office of Archives New Zealand
    A supplementary finding-aid to the archives relating to Maori Schools held in the Auckland Regional Office of Archives New Zealand MAORI SCHOOL RECORDS, 1879-1969 Archives New Zealand Auckland holds records relating to approximately 449 Maori Schools, which were transferred by the Department of Education. These schools cover the whole of New Zealand. In 1969 the Maori Schools were integrated into the State System. Since then some of the former Maori schools have transferred their records to Archives New Zealand Auckland. Building and Site Files (series 1001) For most schools we hold a Building and Site file. These usually give information on: • the acquisition of land, specifications for the school or teacher’s residence, sometimes a plan. • letters and petitions to the Education Department requesting a school, providing lists of families’ names and ages of children in the local community who would attend a school. (Sometimes the school was never built, or it was some years before the Department agreed to the establishment of a school in the area). The files may also contain other information such as: • initial Inspector’s reports on the pupils and the teacher, and standard of buildings and grounds; • correspondence from the teachers, Education Department and members of the school committee or community; • pre-1920 lists of students’ names may be included. There are no Building and Site files for Church/private Maori schools as those organisations usually erected, paid for and maintained the buildings themselves. Admission Registers (series 1004) provide details such as: - Name of pupil - Date enrolled - Date of birth - Name of parent or guardian - Address - Previous school attended - Years/classes attended - Last date of attendance - Next school or destination Attendance Returns (series 1001 and 1006) provide: - Name of pupil - Age in years and months - Sometimes number of days attended at time of Return Log Books (series 1003) Written by the Head Teacher/Sole Teacher this daily diary includes important events and various activities held at the school.

Many Maori who returned from colleges of education had absorbed too much of European New Zealanders' ways and did not meet their community's expectations. Maori-education preschools were graduating 5-year- olds who were bilingual, Maori-English speakers, but Maori parents and communities became increasingly concerned that state primary-school teachers were unprepared to continue or maintain these students' Maori language development. Maori communities challenged the educational system to become more sensitive to

  • 2018: New Zealand's Equal-2Nd Warmest Year on Record
    New Zealand Climate Summary: 2018 Issued: 8 January 2019 2018: New Zealand’s equal-2nd warmest year on record Temperature Annual temperatures were above average (+0.51°C to +1.20°C above the annual average) across the majority of New Zealand, including much of the North Island as well as the western and southern South Island. A small strip of well above average (>1.20°C from average) temperatures were observed in southern Manawatu-Whanganui. Elsewhere, near average (within -0.50°C to +0.50°C of average) temperatures occurred in parts of southern Canterbury, Otago, small parts of Auckland and the Far North. 2018 was the equal 2nd-warmest year on record for New Zealand, based on NIWA’s seven- station series which began in 1909. Rainfall Yearly rainfall in 2018 was above normal (120-149% of the annual normal) across much of the eastern and upper South Island, as well as parts of Wellington, Wairarapa, Bay of Plenty, northern Waikato, and Auckland. Well above normal rainfall (>149% of normal) was observed in portions of southern Canterbury. Rainfall was near normal (80-119% of normal) for the remainder of New Zealand. Soil moisture 2018 began with below or well below normal soil moisture nearly nationwide, but soil moisture in the North Island and upper South Island gradually increased during January. Widespread heavy rainfall from ex-tropical cyclones Fehi and Gita during February resulted in well above normal soil moisture across most of New Zealand. Near to above normal soil moisture persisted through autumn, with near normal soil moisture widespread during the winter.

  • A Critical Examination of Māori Economic Development: a Ngāti Awa Perspective’
    A Critical Examination of Māori Economic Development: A Ngāti Awa Perspective James Daniel Mather PhD 2014 ‘A Critical Examination of Māori Economic Development: A Ngāti Awa Perspective’ A Critical Examination of Māori Economic Development: A Ngāti Awa Perspective James Daniel Mather A thesis submitted to the Auckland University of Technology in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. 2014 Department of Economics Page 2 of 300 ‘A Critical Examination of Māori Economic Development: A Ngāti Awa Perspective’ ABSTRACT This thesis provides a critical examination of Māori economic development with particular emphasis on the Eastern Bay of Plenty iwi of Ngāti Awa. A ‘development patterns framework’ was employed in order to explore key patterns and characteristics associated with Ngāti Awa development from the arrival of Māori in Aotearoa New Zealand, the subsequent colonisation by Britain, and the outcome of these two very different settlement patterns. The preliminary sections of the thesis discuss the relevant social, cultural, political and economic contexts that are used to build the multi-layered historical foundation of the research. The underlying evidential base includes a comprehensive literature review of historical records such as examination of the Ngāti Awa Treaty of Waitangi claim, as well as a comparative analysis of alternative indigenous development models in both non-tribal and international contexts. The research approach was designed with two aims: Firstly, to clarify what is meant by ‘Maori Economic Development’ – an approach that allows the researcher to refine both its meaning and practical application. And secondly, to provide the foundation for the field research and to elicit key findings from a series of interviews conducted with ‘key informants’.
